whether the people cannot use their money
in. such a way as to yield them more than 8
per cent If they cannot, the purchase of
bonds may pay. But the people actually do
use their own money at better rate. as cur
rent quotations of interest in all parts OF the
county indisputably prove For other PROOF
let il be noticed that 10000 millions Of aggre-
gate wealth in 1870 grew to 43, 600 millions
in 1880, gain of nearly per cent compound
interest every year. If the people can and d."
make more than per cent profit on the enttre
wealth they use in aid OF their industry, how
are they to gain by taking any part of IL for tho
purchase of bonds which bear less than 3
per cent on their cost ?
1t is reasoned by many that the Government
cannot use money as wisely for the people
interest as the people use it themselves. In
many things that is true. Government would
not run railroads more pro6tably than corpora
tions now run them, nor iron furnaces, nor
cotton mills. But there are other thing'
which Government can 10. but private
citizens or corporations cannot do at all.
which would repay the cfuniIv largely:
II it be Judged. however, that Gov
eminent cannot use the peoples money
more wisely and more profitably than the
people can use il themselves, the right solution
is to cut down taxes. There is no difficulty
about it duties on sugar and taxes on tobacco
can be cut off, and the revenue can be further
reduced by raising duties on articles now
largely imported. But it is not tue that the
opportunities for profitable employment OF
funds through the Government are exhausted.
Nothing but partisan prejudice, and obsolete
notions of the danger Of central government
more useful to the people than those of the
States. stands in the way. If United States
funds could be managed as any private cap
italist would manage HIS resources. the surplus
revenue would at once be so employed as to
return more than double the sum paid IN IN
tcrest on the bonds which it might retire.

S. HARLAN BAKER,.
Troubles of n Real Estate Agent
of MinneapOiis.

WEsTCHEsTER, Pa, April as. Har-
Ian Baker, real estate agent of Minneap-
oils, Mimi, who was arrested last month
by Myers & Underhill, of New York, for
an Indebtedness to that firm of $50, 900,
also operated extensively in Chester and
Lancaster counties. this state, and those
who had dealings with him have
,nowss arrived at the conclusion
thatths have been swindled. About
year ago Baker organized the United States
Mortgage, Trust and Debenture company.
with an alleged capital OF $50, 900. This
company, it is said. was fraudulent. In
formation from Minneapolis states that
Baker operated in conjunction with James
II. Boylis and wife, who signed mortgages,
claiming to be owners of certain lands in
and around Minneapolis. The alleged
swindler belongs to a good family
in Chester county. Among others
in this vicinity who had dealings with him
were Charles Michener and Susannah Scan
Ian, OF West Fallowfield township, the lat
ter being cousin. A portion of the money
loaned by them was for investment in real
estate in Minneapolis. The formers claim
is $4,000 and the latter's $1,000, and
through their counsel they have issued
foreign attachment against Bakers interest
in his fathers estate. 1t is said that the
debenture company never had legal eX-
istence, and was simply used by Baker to
raise money!

REGISTRATION LIGHT.
Another Question of Law..PrOspeci
of n Light Vote.


The registration ended at 10 O'Clock last
night and the books contain the names OF
all who will be able to vote on Tuesday.
The number of new names is very small,
and after the judges had transferred names
from the polling books they had very little
to do. In several of the precincts where
the lines have been changed the Judges did
not get from other precincts the names OF
voters now in the new districts. while in
Others they do City Attorney Cross opin-
ion is not very clear on this point, but it is
certain, without regard to his opinion. that
such voters will rot be deprived of tile
right to vote. For instance, the
change in the Eighth ward has
taken into the First precinct a
piece of territory formerly in the Second;
Judges in the First precinct did not secure
the names of last falls voters SO transferred
and their names do not appear ON tine reg
iStration books; but it is certain the law
will permit such votes to be sworn in.
1t is believed, from the best information
obtainable. that the books for the coming
election contain fewer than $4,000 names,
against 36. 900 last fall. 1t is the general
opinion that the vote will be very light, and
it will be matter of surprise if it reaches
20. 900, under the circumstances. Ii the
desire to vote be guaged by the desire to
register, the vote will fall considerably be-
low that figure.
